For some strange reason [no change of configuration files] one of our 
slip accounts has been having problems logging in. 

When sliplogin is run, it exits with the following line:

sliplogin[412] spls login failed: exit status 256 from /etc/sliphome/slip.login

What is error 256?

Thanks,

-Jerry.
